U.S Peace Corps Program in Focus

The American Peace Corps program recently come under scrutiny of perpetrating neocolonialism and the white savior complex. Each year, hundreds of fresh American graduates are sent as volunteers by the Peace Corps to mostly developing countries as part of what is termed development assistance. Apart from the criticism the program faces, it has very little Black representation among its volunteers. Alithea Parker and Vince Williams, two African-Americans who volunteered in Cameroon and Ghana respectively, share their experience volunteering in Africa and help us understand why there are few Black Americans joining the Corps. And, candidates in Nigeria's upcoming presidential election, sign an agreement promising to run peaceful campaigns.
